IMG guide Austin Shannon called in from 11,000 feet on Denali at 4:30 pm PDT yesterday. He and guides Luke Reilly and Dallas Glass, climbing on their own for fun, are doing great. Austin reported sunny weather, no clouds, very warm and a perfect view of Mt. Foraker from where they are camped. They will stay at this camp for a couple of days to acclimatize, doing some skiing for entertainment.

Another team, IMG guides Mike Haft and Peter Dale passed through their camp yesterday morning, on their way down to base camp and a flight out. Mike and Peter summited Denali about four days ago and have been doing some additional skiing before heading home.

It is great to see some of our guides up on Denali getting experience on the Great One.
